Coimbatore: The state general committee meeting of Thanthai Periyar Dravidar Kazhagam was convened at the Periyar Padipakam in Gandhipuram, under the leadership of their Secretary K. Ramakrishnan, on May 26. The meeting saw the attendance of various members and leaders from the organization, where several resolutions were passed.

An important decision made during the meeting was the call for the removal of Justice G.R. Saminathan of the Madurai Bench of the Chennai High Court. According to K. Ramakrishnan, this demand stems from allegations that Justice Saminathan has been delivering judgements favoring the RSS and other associated groups previously.

K. Ramakrishnan further highlighted a specific case involving a blogger named Savukku Shankar, where he claimed that Justice Saminathan had issued rulings against the ethos of justice. The assembly thus resolved to request the judiciary to consider removing Justice Saminathan from his position to uphold the integrity of the judiciary.
